SPECIAL OPERATION LADY CHAPLIN Ken Clark, Daniela Bianchi, Jacques Bergerac, Helga Linne, Evelyne Stewart, Mable Karr, Philippe Hersent

Ken Clark again plays secret Agent Dick Malloy for a continuation of the series. When he gets in a cab, they have 077 printed on the cab door.

Helga Linne is in it, even though they never have her name listed in any of the English language credits. Her name does appear in the Spanish version. The end scene in the Spanish version is "similar" but very different in the action than in the English. This is a minor discrepancy but worth noting. Also, the Spanish version has complete END CREDITS that the others omit. Same train scene, but no written credit.

I just watched the Blu-Ray version of FROM Russia WITH LOVE, where Daniela Bianchi first became know to western audiences. Her accent was so think that they had to have someone dub her voice. It is interesting to watch the 2009 Rai-TV, show, STRACULT, with Ken Clark and Daniela together on the same stage. Ken died on June 1st, 2009, just a few months after the show was taped.

They use Scorpions a lot in this movie.

The movie has a very believable story about stealing nuclear missiles from a sunken US Navy Submarine. It snaps along great until the final battle where Ken is in a plane and suddenly comes out of the water wearing a wet-suit and using a spear-gun that fires exploding grenades. I always thought there was a cut there but this new longer version I received has that Jump as well.

There is also a great TRAILER on You Tube for this movie, in case you want to watch it.
